genuine use for it. Have reset and loaded all the bundled software. The

I just upgraded my old palm to a Treo 600. During installation, the

fractured the screen - the palm service centre wants 180 euro to replace the
screen - pretty expensive when the unit only cost 110 ...

I have faithfully backed up the data from my T3 on a daily basis using
Backupbuddy. When My T3 finally required a hard reset, BB did not deliver.
The last 3 backups would not reload, and would lock up the palm in mid
backup. I had to go back 4 days before I got to a backup which ...

Is this true that phone does not support recording of phone conversation ?

Is this possible?  If so, what's the highest pre-OS5 version and where can
I get it?
